Excerpts from Tim Denning’s Medium article: No Mess, No Clutter For 4 Weeks
Decluttering is painful. Even thinking about decluttering can be painful because of how daunting it appears before you start.
But there are benefits:
Now that more than 50% of my possessions are in either charity bins or at the recycling center, I now know what I can live without.
Being organized is a massive time saver. No longer do I need to go on the equivalent of a twelve day Easter Egg Hunt to find a belt I want to wear. It’s now either the black one or the brown one.
Note that by decluttering, you a) have less options to deliberate on, and b) become more organized.
